    PURPOSE: To produce age-related nomograms for ovarian antral follicle count (AFC) in infertile women. METHODS: It was done a cross-sectional study of patients attended in the center of assisted reproduction Fêmina, from March 2010 to October 2011. The patients were submitted to transvaginal ultrasonography from day 2 to day 4 of their menstrual period. Patients included were between 21 to 45 years old, with regular menses, two healthy ovaries, without any evidence of endocrinopathies and who gave written informed consent. Patients excluded were smokers, with galactosemia or ovarian cysts, with antecedents of liver disease, ovarian surgeries or who were treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy. In order to check the evolution of the AFC in relation to patient age, we used the 5th, 25th, 50th, 75th and 95th percentiles. Linear regression was carried out using these percentiles, permitting us to determine the effect of age on the CFA. RESULTS: A total of 172 patients with a mean age of 32.7 years were included in the trial. The male and tubal factors were the main causes of infertility, accounting for 65% of cases. The age-related nomogram for the 5th, 25th, 50th, 75th and 95th percentiles of AFC revealed that changes were best fitted by a linear function. The percentiles that showed the highest correlations were 25 (r=-0.9; p<0.001), 50 (r=-0.9; p<0.001) and 75 (r=-0.9; p<0.001). CONCLUSION: A nomogram was constructed correlating age with the different AFC percentiles in infertile women without endocrinopathies. This showed a linear pattern of decline in AFC with age in all percentiles. These nomograms could provide a reference guide for the clinician. However, future validation, with longitudinal data, still is needed.

    Objective

    To evaluate the variability of three-dimensional automatic counts of ovarian follicles measuring 2-6 to 2-10 mm during the menstrual cycle and to determine if this test can be applied outside the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle.

    Methods

    in a prospective observational study, serial transvaginal ultrasound scans were performed from April 20, 2013, to October 30, 2014, on infertile patients. Inclusion criteria: age between 18 and 35 years, BMI 18-25 kg/m2, regular menstrual cycles, no history of ovarian surgery and no hormonal changes in TSH, prolactin, fasting insulin or glucose. We excluded patients with ovarian cysts or who did not complete one or more days of the serial transvaginal ultrasound scans. The follicle count was performed in 3D mode ultrasound with a Sono AVC system. Visits were scheduled for the early follicular, mid-follicular, periovulatory and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle.

    Results

    Forty-five women were included. The Friedman test showed that the total number of follicles measuring 2-6 mmvaried significantly (p = 0.001) across the four periods of the menstrual cycle. The Paired Student t-test showed a significant increase in 2-6 mm follicle count from the mid-follicular and periovulatory phase to the luteal phase. We found no significant intra-cycle variation between the small follicles (2-6 mm) in the early follicular, mid-follicular and periovulatory phases. The Friedman test showed that the total number of follicles measuring 2-10 mm varied significantly (p = 0.003) across the menstrual cycle.

    Conclusions

    The variation of three-dimensional automatic counts of 2-6 mm follicles in the early follicular, mid-follicular and periovulatory phases was not statistically significant. The significant variability in the counts of follicles measuring 2-10 mm across the menstrual cycle does not permit this examination to be performed side the early follicular phase.
